Still thinking of this picture captured by Julia Nikhinson, from this year's Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

Wow. Incredible on-the-ground slice of reality. Is there any more context on what is going down?

A tale of two Americas. A corporate behemoth looms over, while police excessively detain a person who dares to disrupt their dominance

Damn - Such a strong image, and even stronger with that context. Thanks Adam. Ronald don't give a shit about you, citizen!

Not to be graphic, but it looks like that person is being held down for Ronald to have their way with them. A metaphor for a larger concept of power applied to the powerless

"Ronald" and "Roy Cohn*" and all the likely friends with icky power dynamics bubbling and boiling within that great big frothy "American Experiment" of greed and lust! And all going down in the big apple. The disillusionment vibes totally write themselves with that powerful image. *(just finished watching the new movie "The Apprentice" a period piece in NYC, very good piece of film making, but made me feel dirty).
